One word.. disappointing.

Rating: 4/10 (11 July 2013)

Saw the movie yesterday evening and I must say, going in with minimal expectations, these expectations were fully met.. I was pretty disappointed...
The story is paper thin (although built up nicely) and the performances of the actors flat as a pancake.
Perhaps I am still holding on to my childhood years when I saw movies like Labyrinth, Dark Crystal, Never Ending Story and never been so engulfed in a movie ever since. But the Rim was a movie I just couldn't get into at all. Yes, the special effects were great and all that, but it just didn't reach me and tug the ol' heart strings. No goose bumps like when watching the first Iron Man and no perplexed amazement like watching The Matrix for the first time.
All in all..
I want the 130 minutes of my life back I spent watching this movie..
Harsh? You decide yourself when watching this movie..
